Answer:

A

Explanation:

From left to right of the graph, we can observe that the generally the points are going down. This means that the trend line drawn will have a negative slope.

In the slope-intercept form, which is the form the given equations are in, we have y= mx +c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

We are only interested in the slope in this case, since no actual values are given. Thus, let's focus on the coefficients of x to determine whether the slope is positive or negative.

Option A: Slope= -⅔ (negative)

Option B: Slope= 3 (positive)

Since we have a negative slope, option A would be the best answer.

The attached image shows 2 graphs. The graph in blue shows the shape of a graph with negative slope, while the graph in red has a positive slope.
